Abstract (en)

Biosensors are analytical devices composed of a recognition element coupled to a physical transducer (mass, optical, electrochemical and thermal) for qualitative and / or quantitative detection of biological analytes. Biosensors have wide applications in Medical & Technology; Food & Technology; Industrial & Technology; Environment Measurement & Technology and BioDefense. The invention is about a novel biosensor and biosensor array using piezoelectric ceramic resonators as the core component of the biosensor, and to develop a biosensor platform for simultaneous detection of multiple biomarkers including but not limited to detection of multiple cancer markers for screening and early diagnosis of the most common types of cancers; detection of multiple heart disease markers for early diagnosis and prognosis of heart disease; detection of multiple food contaminants for improvement of food safety; detection of multiple environmental toxins for monitoring environmental pollution and detection of multiple bio-warfare agents for military and civil defence applications. The piezoelectric ceramic-based biosensor and the technology platform established will create an exciting new market in various sectors
